It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

However, over this period of time, he could feel that Shen Qin's hostility towards him seemed to have faded a little - this was not because the good sister's mentality had changed, but simply because it was the inevitable consequence of the continuous loss of memories about Shen He.

Including the illusory "Shenhe aura" on him, which is also a factor that makes the other party want to quench his thirst by drinking poison even though he knows it is impossible.

Until this day.

At night, just after sending Xia Ke'an away to play with the naughty kids on the island, Xu Shi found that there was a little tail following him.

When he realized who the other person was, he didn't care and deliberately led the other person around in circles.

Then, in a corner where no one was around, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Miss Xiaoling, why have you been following me?"

"I……"

Pan Ling, who was not far away, poked her head out from behind the tree. She was obviously a little embarrassed about being discovered by him. "I, I'm fine..."

"You still say it's nothing?"

Xu Shi's tone hardened a little, "Come here."

Only then did Miss Xiaoling move closer cautiously.

"I'm not a bad person, why are you so scared of me?"

Xu Shi smiled and asked her to sit on a stone nearby. "You must have something to do with me so late at night... Just tell me if you have something to say."

He knew that his sister was introverted by nature. He had been to Pan Cheng's house many times these days to eat, drink and have fun, but Pan Ling had always been like this, keeping her distance from him. After following her sister to learn sword from Xia Wuyou for a few days, she never went there again.

On the contrary, it was the carefree sister Pan Feng who called him Uncle Xu in a very friendly way.

"...I, I do have something to talk to you about."

His attitude was very gentle, which made Xiaoling feel a little relieved. "But, I'm afraid you won't be happy if I tell you this..."

"How can I know if you don't tell me?"

Xu Shi was very patient and persuasive. It was really troublesome to communicate with Yin Ka...

"Well, then I said it."

Since that was the case, Pan Ling no longer hid it and spoke out bravely.

"Xu, Uncle Xu, you were lying that day, right?"

? !

Xu Shi was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that the little girl was talking about the conflict with Luo Yu that day?

"Why do you think so?"

Xu Shi found it interesting, so he asked back.

"No, it's not that I feel it, but I can feel it..."

Pan Feng stammered in response, "I, I've been able to sense what other people are thinking since I was a child, so I know that although you were very polite that day and said it was okay, you didn't seem to think so in your heart... It was the same when you explained it to your sister..."

Yo ho?

Xu Shi was even more surprised, obviously he didn't expect that she would come here to point out the truth to him.

That was indeed unexpected. After all, the little girl was still young. She was only fifteen years old this year, but she could see so many things? Her sister was one year older than her. Didn't she get away with it right away after she explained it that day?

"Then tell me, what are my real thoughts?"

Realizing this, Xu Shi looked at her with interest and asked.

"..."

Pan Ling was silent. She didn't dare to say that your real thoughts were dangerous. In her perception, they were as dark as ink.

"Then let me ask you another way. What else do you feel?"

Xu Shi thought about it and changed his words. For children, asking such questions would indeed cause psychological burden to others.

"I, I can still feel that Daddy is not sincere. He is deliberately hiding the truth from Brother Luo Yu and you..."

Miss Xiao Feng was not very worldly-wise after all, so she was easily tricked into revealing something with just a few words.

good guy?

Xu Shi was a little surprised. How could she see so clearly?

In fact, he had long known that Pan Cheng also had selfish motives at the time, and he failed to speak up for Pan Cheng, saying, "If they really had ill intentions, they would still sit here calmly." Not only was he worried that the relationship between him and Pan Cheng would change after he said it, he also wanted to make those bronze knights suffer.

After all, he was forced to go out to sea and almost didn't come back. It would be a lie to say that he was not angry, but he couldn't resist openly, so he came up with this idea.

In a sense, this can be considered as killing someone with a borrowed knife... Fortunately, Xu Shi was not unhappy at the time, and he did not care about it afterwards, and just regarded it as a favor.

But when these words came out of Pan Ling's mouth, it was a completely different situation.

"So? What do you want to tell me?"

Xu Shi gently hooked his fingers and used a little ability, wanting to hear more from her.

"I, I just feel a little bad..."

Miss Xiaoling didn't notice, but suddenly she wanted to talk, so she lowered her eyes, her tone a little disappointed, "I always think that everyone should get along well, whether it's Daddy or Brother Luo Yu, but everyone always wants more, and won't say many things... Including you, Uncle Xu, although you haven't been here for a long time, but I don't want..."

You can see that she is a little conflicted and doesn't know what to do in the face of such a situation. These are people she cherishes, so of course she doesn't want any intrigue.

Xu Shi nodded, and finally discovered where her introverted personality came from.

Although he knew before that Pan Ling was also an "Ascendant", he had never paid much attention to it, let alone asked. Now it seems that her ability should be related to mind reading?

Oh ~

This is an ability that only exists in flashbacks. Xu Shi’s mother Wen Ruijin possessed this ability back then.

However, compared to his S-level mother, the girl Xiaoling in front of him was obviously far behind. He couldn't even feel the other party's supernatural aura, and was obviously still at a very early stage.

But even this seems to be a burden for her. Knowing many things that she shouldn't know at such a young age is a very heavy gift.

Especially since most people's inner thoughts tend to be darker, knowing this would only make her distressed and feel that everyone is hypocritical. With such thoughts in her head, she would be introverted.

She couldn't tell anyone else. If she did, wouldn't that be like telling everyone, "I know all your secrets?" If that were the case, even her own father would have to be on guard against her.

If I hadn't used my ability, I'm afraid she wouldn't have said it so readily.

Hi.

After sorting out the causes and consequences, Xu Shi suddenly felt a little sorry for the little girl. She had been holding it in like this and really needed someone to comfort her.

and so.

He took a deep breath and refueled the fire.

"Then have you ever felt your brother Luo Yu's heart? Do you know...what he thinks?"

Great! The leader has finally finished his extra chapters. It has 20,000 words in total. If it were someone else, it would be 10 chapters...

I really don’t know how to end this chapter, so I just combined it into one.

Do I still owe anything? If so, continue to make up...

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 217: Master, please accept my disciple’s greetings!

"I……"

When Pan Ling heard Xu Shi ask this, she was stuck for a moment and stayed there for a long time without saying a word.

It’s not that she doesn’t know the answer, but that she doesn’t know how to answer it, or rather, she doesn’t want to answer it.

Out of curiosity, she did try to feel Luo Yu's thoughts, but the result was completely different from what she expected.

Both her father and Uncle Xu had thoughts beneath the surface, which made her feel uncomfortable. She originally thought that Brother Luo Yu would be different from them, but he was the same in his heart... The darkness hidden under the light even made Miss Xiaoling shudder.

Why did Brother Luo Yu also... But even so, she still deliberately skipped him just now and tried to avoid the parts related to him.

This is the little girl's own selfish desire. After all, Luo Yu is a very important person to her. She sincerely hopes that he is different from others. Maybe this is just an isolated case?

"Tell me the answer."

Xu Shi didn't give her this chance, stared into her eyes, and asked in a low voice and earnestly.

"Brother Luo Yu, he, he, he..."

Pan Ling couldn't stand his tone and said everything tremblingly.

Her tone was even a little mechanical. "He deliberately made things difficult for you, and he stood by and watched. He didn't care about those servants. He, he seemed to have it all along..."

"Just what?"

"...There is the idea of ​​getting rid of them..."

Miss Xiaoling finished the sentence in a low voice.

After listening to her speaking in a halting manner, Xu Shi nodded meaningfully.

It was exactly as he expected... He still had to confirm it after all. After discovering that Pan Ling had this ability, he became interested.

And this is not difficult for him - with the blessing of "Yujing", his use of "entropy increase of evil thoughts" has long been more flexible than before. It is one aspect to be able to use it in a wide range, and it can also force others to confide in it like now.

It's hard to say how it would perform against high-level "Upgraders", but it's still pretty easy to use on beginners like this.

This practice will not leave any seeds, and Xu Shi does not want to leave any seeds. The little girl is the daughter of a friend, and it would be too inhumane to do this to her.

...It's talking about the seeds of evil thoughts.

But it was obvious that even so, Pan Ling still couldn't withstand such a mental shock. Although her eyes were gradually regaining clarity, her whole body collapsed on the stone as if all her strength was drained out, gasping for breath and seemed to have difficulty breathing.

It took her a long time to calm down completely.

"Woo, woo woo..."

But after returning to normal, she couldn't help crying, "No, it shouldn't be like this, everyone... wu, I don't want to..."

She was not completely unconscious and still knew what she had just done. It was cruel for her to speak out the dark side of the person she admired.

The more Xiaoling cried, the sadder she became.

Xu Shi just watched all this silently, and when she was exhausted from crying, he returned to her side again.

"It's sad, isn't it?"
